Beskrivning
Clear English Pronunciation provides students with the tools to effectively communicate in English without centring solely on native-speaker pronunciation models. The focus of the book is on individual pronunciation targets rather than a one-size-fits-all approach. Divided into four sections, each featuring detailed articulatory explanations, sample sentences, and recordings to help learners improve their pronunciation, this book: introduces the phenomenon of pronunciation as part of a broader communicative realm; explains and demonstrates the melody and rhythm of understandable and natural English pronunciation; supports students in identifying and practicing their own pronunciation issues.Supported by an interactive companion website which features recordings and expanded explanations of key topics, Clear English Pronunciation is an essential textbook for international learners of English who want to improve their pronunciation skills in diverse social settings.

This is a long-awaited book, instrumental in improving the pronunciation skills strongly needed for effective communication in English as a global lingua franca in the context of its vast regional variation.Viktoriya Zavyalova, Far Eastern Federal University, RussiaClear English Pronunciation provides many examples that demonstrate what could go wrong in communication.
